The ocean keeps the temperature mild in summer and winter by, in summer, extracting heat from the air to warm up the waters temperature, then in winter, the heat radiates off the ocean. By the end of winter, the water is colder from the cold air, and radiates it off in summer.

Hope that helped.

Why do coastal regions tend to experience more mild winters then continental regions?

Coastal regions tend to experience more mild winters due to the moderating effects of the ocean. The ocean has a higher heat capacity than land, which helps to keep coastal areas warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This moderating effect is known as a maritime climate, which leads to smaller temperature variations compared to the more extreme temperature changes in continental regions.
